    Selling a Powertrax No Slip locker, p/n 9220803001. Have been running this for about 20k miles without a single issue. Every tooth and chamfer are 100% good as new. This is not a LSD, this is what is commonly referred to as a "lunchbox locker". You can't turn it on like the e-locker or ARB. It locks your rear end when enough throttle is applied, I'd say around 15%. No pops or clicking around corners. A few times it's popped when reversing into a parking spot but otherwise it's seamless traction :burnrubber:

    Looking for $200 locally, $225 shipped.     sold!

    Bump! No air lines to leak, no need to rock back & forth to get it to engage. You press the skinny pedal & you have 2 tire fire. Zero maintenance aside from normal diff oil changes. And for 90% cheaper than other locker options!

    I chose this because it didn't cost $2k+ like the air/electric alternatives & I didn't need a pro to install it. I don't have the tools to measure driveline lash so that also disqualifies me from DIY install of air or electric lockers. The hardest part of this install is removing the ring gear bolts, but if you have a jig to stop the diff from spinning....or use an impact gun....then it's cake. Once I procured a 1/2" impact gun to use (3/8" could maybe break em loose) the install took me about 2 hours, including reinstalling the 3rd member with Form A Gasket.

    Great answers! I do have a few impacts. Can't recommend the Milwaukee 1/2" hi torque enough.

    Let me do a little reading on it but like the fact I could do it.... almost time to change the fluid too.
